Chelsea are not getting the expected results after a record transfer window. And behind the scenes too, the methods of Todd Boehly are talking.
Thus, in a report published by the newspaper The teamwe learn a little more about the methods of Todd Boehly, new owner of Chelsea. The American billionaire, who has achieved a record transfer window that looks like a catch-all, would have a hard time understanding how a high-level club works.
Boehly would have regularly attended the training sessions of Graham Potter, “their” coach who arrived last summer to replace Tuchel (first unpopular decision of the Boehly-Eghbali tandem). This omnipresence would have weakened Potter’s position with his core, who already had little respect for him.
We also learn in the report of The team that the arrival of the Americans at the helm would have been accompanied by massive layoffs, including for employees present at Chelsea for more than 15 years. C4 received without any other form of trial and without more ceremony. Remember that Chelsea are currently 11th in the Premier League, after the two biggest recruitment campaigns in history.
